The Clare County Director of Emergency Management and Homeland Security, Jerry Becker, says that the semi driver was taken to the hospital for minor injuries and nobody else was hurt after crashing on the eastbound US-10 ramp to northbound US-127 (Exit 89).

“According to the fire department, the chief said that they had to first secure to make sure the vehicle wasn’t going to topple the rest of the way off of the overpass. And then to get the driver extricated, get them on to medical care. And the fire department was here really quick. Then vehicle, you know, was laying over partially over the side of the guardrail, so it’s kind of a dangerous situation,” Becker says.

The accident remains under investigation, but more information is expected to be released once it has been completed.

The ramp remains closed at this time.
